Assessment of Functional Properties of Wheat–Cassava Composite Flour
Cassava flour (CF) was used as a raw material to replace wheat flour (WF) at levels of 0% (control), 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50% to prepare wheat–cassava composite flour (W-CF) and dough. The effects of different CF substituting levels on the functional properties of the W-CF and dough were investig...

description | Cassava flour (CF) was used as a raw material to replace wheat flour (WF) at levels of 0% (control), 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50% to prepare wheat–cassava composite flour (W-CF) and dough. The effects of different CF substituting levels on the functional properties of the W-CF and dough were investigated. The results show that an increase in CF led to a decrease in the moisture, protein, fat, and <i>b</i>* values of W-CF. The crude fiber, ash, starch, <i>L</i><span style="font-variant: small-caps;">*</span>, <i>a</i>* values, iodine blue value (<i>IBV</i>), and swelling power (<i>SP</i>) of the composite flour increased gradually. It was found that the water absorption, hardness, and chewiness of the W-CF dough increased with an increase in the CF substitution level. A different trend could be observed with the springiness and cohesiveness of the W-CF dough. The resistance to extension, extensibility, and the extended area of the W-CF dough at all substitution levels was significantly lower than that of the WF dough. The elasticity and cohesiveness of the dough tended to increase for CF content from 10% to 30%, followed by a decrease at a higher replacement. Pearson correlation analysis indicated that the substitution levels of CF had a significant influence on the proximate analysis and functional properties of the W-CF and dough. This study will provide important information on choosing CF substitution levels for different products. |
